A/N: This chapter is short also, I apologize. But this book will soon be coming to an end :') I absolutely loved writing this and I hope you all stay with me to enjoy more of my work. Please, I absolutely LOVE the support this book has been receiving. I cannot believe it's reached over 105 votes and 700 reads <3 I never even would have imagined this. While I have mentioned my next book, Savior, I have also been gaining inspiration for other novels. I am still on the fence as to which I will be publishing/writing next. Either way, there will be a delay. But I hope you guys wont mind as I hope that it will be better than this <3 Enjoy.
"Happy birthday, beautiful."
I smiled, walking into the kitchen to find that Vito was making breakfast.
"You didn't have to," I said, walking up to him, still in my pajamas.
"I know," He said, leaning down to give me a kiss, "I wanted to."
"Well thank you," I said, "It smells very good."
"It better," He said, chuckling. "Take a seat, I'll fix you a plate."
Sitting down at the table, I watched as he carefully placed different pieces of food on my plate.
"So," I began, "Today we can finally be public."
"I know," he said, turning to me to reveal his handsome smile, "But I'm not telling anyone yet. I'll let you worry about that."
"What if we didn't tell anyone at school, and we only stuck with family until I graduate. Then when you're at graduation, everyone will be surprised and we'll just be happily together as we are now."
"Whatever you want babe." He said, softly setting my plate down in front of me before he began to fix his.
"How are we working Thanksgiving again?" He asked curiously, as tomorrow was turkey day.
"Well, since my great grandma passed, all of the gatherings have been held at my Aunt Kendall and Uncle Colt's house, since it's nice and big. But they're all the way in Estes park." I spoke, forking a little bit of pancake into my mouth, "I don't know where your parents live or any of that, so I don't know if you want to see the-"
"Yeah, I can introduce you to my family in the morning." He interjected, sitting down next to me, "My mom does more of a brunch for the holidays since my dad always waited til later to do his things."
"Just so you know, tomorrow evening may be a bit overwhelming. My dad has eleven siblings... not including in-laws."
"Oh my."
We continued talking, eating our breakfast.

"Have a good day," He said, "I'll be here to pick you up after school."
"Okay," I said, leaning in to give him a kiss.
"I love you."
"I love you too." I said, smiling at him as I got out, walking up to the school.
When I got inside, the building was quite full, as I didn't get there as early as I had hoped before my zero hour. Beginning to head straight to class, I noticed a few people watch me walk through the halls... something that never really happened.

"Daisy," I heard one of the jocks, Jason, say to me at lunch, "You and Mr. Scaletta??"
How. Did. He. Know.
